Book excerpt: AN INEVITABLE GUIDE, A UNIQUE CONCEPT Between pleasure and emotion First the result of a rigorous selection, in total independence, this Champagnes guide aims at highlighting Champagnes of high-end expression, source of intense emotions and pleasure when tasted. These 100 Champagnes represent a terroir, a genuine savoir-faire, and a true passion. Here, no ranking, hierarchy, marks, blind tastings, intended to reassure the reader and be a proof of honesty and exactitude. How can we give a mark to a pleasure, an emotion? No, just “Favourites” that translate the emotions and pleasure felt by the tasters who, on the contrary, have the maximum of information about the tasted Champagne, to better explain and comprehend it as a whole. This guide offers a new approach, unique, enthusiast and logical, far from the tradiotnal tasting comments that assess and rank the Champagnes. Here the key words are discovery and openmindedness. e goal is absolutely not to judge but to understand the selected Champagne, and above all to meet the producer and comprehend his approach, perceive his inspiration. The objective clearly is to set Champagne back in its real place, to consider it as a cultural product, a piece of art, the result of the encounter between a terroir and men, to highlight the savoir-faire, the talent and the enological creativity of the Champagne makers. Directed by Michel VERON, enologist, enology teacher at Lycée Viticole de la Champagne since more than 20 years, this book is the fruit of his passion for the tasting of Champagnes and his long experience enriched by many encounters with the Champagne makers.
